I had a good start to my work week today. I cleaned some shelves, started loading a bisque and finished up some new flower blocks. ( I just can't seem to get away from them). My last set of flower blocks in the last kiln I fired all had "foot"issues. Basically the feet either pulled away from form when they where firing or I had glaze runs that broke off little bits of the foot after the glaze firings. So....I'm taking a break from that shape and this time made a boxy shape with different kind of feet. I'm determined to figure out this puzzle and have some sort of flower block design be a regular thing I make in the inventory.
I'll get some photo's up tomorrow!

hey jen... the show was good I guess... comparing with other artists they seemed to think it was good but it wasn't GREAT.....so... I would have liked to do better... apparently my set up was good and the other potters/artists had nice things to say about my work.... so I would say it went well... unfortunately... I didn't SELL OUT!
ReplyDeleteYou have beed very busy thoug. I specially like the lidded vessel with the daisy motif drying in saturday's photo... I just do!
you are accomplishing ALOT putting this kiln together,,, This is great!
Glad to hear you show went pretty well. Sometimes it takes awhile to build up a following at a show. You should do it again! And you know, I've never really known for someone to "sell out", but I may not be doing those types of shows.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the feed back on the vessels.
You should put some photo's of your booth on your blog!
I'll do that now...
